These are so cute. As a former preschool teacher, I always love finding new ways to use handprints and footprints. My fave is the baseball. That is simply precious for a baby grandson to give to grandpa. My boys are too big, but I'll share it with my sister for her twins to do. Thanks for sharing Bonny
